Store report chunks, meeting notes, emails. Allow semantic search for past trends, anomalies, or project-specific KPIs.
621. What is active learning and how can GenAI systems use it post-deployment?
Select uncertain/informative samples for labeling → fine-tune → repeat. GenAI can flag low-confidence completions or ask for review.
622. How do you select samples for human-in-the-loop feedback efficiently?
Rank by:
Model uncertainty
User dissatisfaction
Diversity (embedding distance)
623. What’s the role of uncertainty estimation in triggering active learning?
Triggers sampling of ambiguous or novel inputs. Use entropy, variance across beams, or ensemble disagreement.
624. How can GenAI auto-label low-confidence examples for later review?
Tag with reasons: “Low overlap with training domain” or “Multiple interpretations possible.” Route to review queue.
625. How do you manage feedback queue prioritization in production apps?
Assign scores: business impact × model uncertainty × frequency. Use queues per category (e.g., safety, accuracy).
626. What are metrics to determine convergence in human-AI retraining cycles?
